Work on the flare
Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,248 m of the approach.
Plan view — the full 1,248 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 362 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Overall, it sounds like there were some positive aspects to the aircraft landing, such as good glideslope and heading alignment during the approach phase, smooth touchdown rate during the touchdown phase, and fair runway alignment during the rollout phase. It is great that the speed was on target for the approach phase and the distance covered during the touchdown phase was very good.
However, there were also some areas that could be improved. The threshold height being too low and a very poor landing flare during the landing phase are concerning. Additionally, landing with an 8 knot tailwind is dangerous and should be avoided in the future.
To improve for future landings, it is recommended to pay close attention to threshold height and landing flare technique to ensure a safe and smooth touchdown. Avoid landing with a tailwind if possible and continue to practice and focus on runway alignment throughout all phases of the landing. Overall, with some adjustments and practice, the next landing can be even better. Keep up the good work.
